The place was perfect for my stay. The ladies in the office were very nice and welcoming! My check in was really easy. The room was very clean and nice. It looked newly renovated. For a place on the roadside it is a really nice place to stay at a great value. I'd definitely recommend it to someone and plan on staying here again when I'm up this way.

Motel Nightmare
I cannot believe I paid triple digits for this room after suffering a comedy of errors. First of all, when I booked and on all my documentation, it was called the Gateway Motel, so imagine my confusion at the sudden name change to the eerie "Last Resort" when I arrived. At around 10pm, the office was closed, so I rang the doorbell, but no answer. I called the number on the door and someone (the owner?) came to let me in and expressed frustration that her computer had booked me under the following day, not the day I had arrived. Trying not to panic, I pulled out my email confirmation and she double-checked Expedia, which clearly showed I had paid for a room that night. Luckily she had a room available, so I brought my family into the room, and again, I cannot believe I was charged almost $200 for this room. The first thing we did was kill a roach on the nightstand. We shooed away flies who had flown in the bathroom window with holes in the screen and no curtain. The main room floor curtain wouldn't close properly with the window AC unit. The unit must have been in the middle of renovation, because half the bathroom was stripped out including the towel rack and the surface area of the mirror. I'm glad some reviews have had a good experience and nice pictures, but mine was just a nightmare, and I feel like I have to caution review-readers. I will say, [the owner?] did call the next day to see if my son was still feeling carsick and to apologize for making me wait for the room.

Room was nice but bath tub and sink were stained. The facility also runs on well water, very strong smell, difficult to shower or wash hands because of it.

Cozy motel, 15 minutes away from Silver lake sand dunes. So perfect if you're spending a weekend at the dunes. Right outside of Hart which is a neat little town to vist. I would say this is a really nice place to stay, it was quite, felt safe, they had activities outside, bonfire at night. And the room was clean, sheets smelt clean!

This an older roadside motel that was in proximity of an event in the area we were attending. We typically stay at branded hotels as opposed to these smaller i dependent motels, but very limited choice in this remote area. The motel is old and dated on the outside, but our room was re recently refurbished with new floors, paint and beds. Believe the motel recently changed hands and the new owners were extremely pleasant and caring. Room was clean and had a small refrigerator, microwave and keureg coffee maker (with pods supplied)that came in handy. We had friends that attended the same event but chose to stay 40 miles away, while we were very close to our event in Pentwater. You can tell this motel is a work in progress, but was pleasantly surprised.

The owner was so lovely, I booked the hotel for my festival the wrong date and she was luckily able to move my reservation. New ownership and definitely a lot cleaner than it was and very welcoming! Very pleased with our stay, the only thing I would’ve liked was better curtains or draw string blinds and the air conditioner gets really hot and the long curtains are resting on it and that made me a bit nervous. They had a fridge inside too which was awesome and just an overall very pleasant stay! Definitely will be back for next years festival!

Great little place in the woods
It was better then expected. I went there for electric forest and didnt want to camp so i stayed here. They are redoing the rooms and i got a brand new room with new bathroom. Queen size bed perfect for 1 person. I wouldn't have more then 2 ppl in the room cause its small but comfortable. The oweners were really nice and accommodating.

Our check in was not exactly friendly, and they switched people in the middle of our check-in. We got to the room, and it smelled horrible, musty and like it hadn't been cleaned. The bathroom was gross and dirty with dirty towels still hanging on the shower rod. Would not recommend.

Older motel and room was nice. Had nice wood plank flooring, clean, comfortable bed, small bathroom. Shower had new shower head. Water does have an odor of sulfur that is not uncommon to this area. Bring your own bottled water for drinking. Room had nice TV, small fridge and microwave. And a coffee maker. Air conditioner worked very well. Free wifi. Park style grills available for use. You provide the charcoal.
